Bolt Usage and Torque Application


1. Use bolts of proper length. A bolt which is too long
will bottom before the head is tight against its related
part. If a bolt is too short, there will not be enough
thread area to engage and hold the part properly.
When replacing bolts, use only those having the
same specifications of the original, or one which is
equivalent.

Tire Wear and Damage


Inspect tires periodically for wear or damage. Tires with
worn edges or distorted profiles require replacement.
Tires with significant damage in the tread area or side wall,
require immediate evaluation before replacing the
machine into service.

Wheel and Tire Replacement


Replacement wheels must have the same diameter and
profile as the original. Replacement tires must be the
same size and rating as the tire being replaced.

Wheel Installation

It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper
wheel mounting torque. Following the recommended sequence, tighten nuts
per wheel torque.

Roll and Leak Testing
Torque-Hub units should always be roll and leak tested
before disassembly and after assembly to make sure
that the unit’s gears, bearings and seals are working
properly. The following information briefly outlines what
to look for when performing these tests.

THE ROLL TEST

The purpose of the roll test is to determine if the unit’s


gears are rotating freely and properly. You should be
able to rotate the gears in your unit by applying con-
stant force to the roll checker. If you feel more drag in
the gears only at certain points, then the gears are not
rolling freely and should be examined for improper
installation or defects. Some gear packages roll with
more difficulty than others. Do not be concerned if the
gears in your unit seem to roll hard as long as they roll
with consistency.

THE LEAK TEST (MAIN UNIT)

The purpose of a leak test is to make sure the unit is air


tight. You can tell if your unit has a leak if the pressure

3.9 HELAC ROTARY ACTUATOR


Theory Of Operation
The rotary actuator is a simple mechanism that uses
the sliding spline operating concept to convert linear
piston motion into powerful shaft rotation. Each actua-
tor is composed of a housing with integrated gear
teeth (01) and only two moving parts: the central shaft
with integrated bearing tube and mounting flange (02),
and the annular piston sleeve (03). Helical spline teeth
machined on the shaft engage matching splines on the
in-side diameter of the piston. The outside diameter of
the piston carries a second set of splines, of opposite
hand, which engage with matching splines in the hous-
ing. As hydraulic pressure is applied, the piston is dis-
placed axially within the housing -similar to the
operation of a hydraulic cylinder while the splines
cause the shaft to rotate. When the con-trol valve is
closed, oil is trapped inside the actuator, preventing
piston movement and locking the shaft in position.
The shaft is supported radially by the large upper radial
bearing and the lower radial bearing. Axially, the shaft NOTE: Bars indicate starting positions of piston and shaft.
is separated from the housing by the upper and lower Arrows indicate direction they will rotate. The hous-

ance and locked in position by set screws or pins. As fluid pressure is applied, the piston is displaced
axially while the helical gearing causes the piston
and shaft to rotate simultaneously. The double helix
design compounds rotation: shaft rotation is about
twice that of the piston.

Tools Required for Assembly/Disassembly Disassembly


Upon assembly and disassembly of the actuator there
are basic tools required. The tools and their intended
functions are as follows:

1. Flashlight- helps examine timing marks, component


failure and overall condition.

2. Felt Marker- match mark the timing marks and out-


line troubled areas.

3. Allen wrench- removal of port plugs and setscrews.

4. Box knife- removal of seals.

5. Seal tool- assembly and disassembly of seals and


wear guides.

shaft.

7. Rubber mallet- removal and installation of shaft and


piston sleeve assembly.

8. Nylon drift- installation of piston sleeve.

9. End cap dowel pins- removal and installation of end


cap (sold with Helac seal kit).

2. Using a 1/8” (3.18mm) drill bit, drill a hole in the cen-


ter of each lock pin to a depth of approximately 3/
16” (4.76mm).

The seal tool is merely a customized standard flat head 3. Remove the lock pins using an “Easy Out” (a size
screwdriver. To make this tool you will need to heat the #2 is shown). If the pin will not come out with the
flat end with a torch. Secure the heated end of the “Easy Out”, use 5/16” drill bit to a depth of 1/2”

ring fittings, it is necessary to lubricate all fittings with
hydraulic oil prior to assembly. To lubricate the fittings, use
one of the following procedures.

NOTE: All O-ring fittings must be pre-lubricated with hydrau-


lic oil prior to assembly.

Cup and Brush


The following is needed to correctly oil the o-ring in this
manner:

• A small container for hydraulic oil


• Small paint brush 3. Turn the o-ring on the other side of the fitting and
repeat the previous step, ensuring the entire o-ring
is coated with hydraulic oil.

1. Hold the fitting in one hand while using the brush


with the other hand to dip into the container.
Remove excess hydraulic oil from the brush so an
even film of oil is applied on the o-ring.

• A small amount of hydraulic oil to saturate the sponge.
1. Place the sponge inside the container and add
hydraulic oil to the sponge until it is fully saturated.
2. Dip the fitting into the sponge using firm pressure.
Upon lifting the fitting, a small droplet will form and
drip from the bottom of the fitting. This should signify
an even coating of oil on the fitting.

Brush-on Method
This method requires a sealed bottle brush.

1. Fill the bottle with hydraulic oil.


2. Using slight pressure to the body of the spray bottle,
invert the bottle so the brush end is in the downward
position.

circuit. If the lower boom is not extending, turn the
speed control up very slowly until the lower boom
starts to move.
5. Raise the Tower boom approx. 1 foot (30.5 cm), then
close bleeder while the boom is still moving.
6. Lift down all the way.
7. Repeat this procedure until all air has been purged
from the circuit. Re-check the hydraulic oil level.
To test, cycle the lower lift function 3-4 times to see if both
cylinders stop at the same time when fully extended.

DRIVING AT CREEP - TILTED
Drive speed is limited to creep because the vehicle is tilted.
FWS
A drive or boom function has been selected but footswitch is open.
PUMP MOTOR AT CURRENT LIMIT
Pump current has reached controller current limit or safe operating area limit.
RUNNING AT CREEP - CREEP SWITCH OPEN
All function speeds are limited to creep because the creep switch is open.
RUNNING AT CUTBACK - ABOVE ELEVATION
All function speeds are limited to cutback speed because the vehicle is above elevation.
RUNNING AT CREEP - TILTED AND ABOVE ELEVATION
All function speeds are limited to creep because the vehicle it tilted and above elevation.
TESTS ACTIVE - RECYCLE EMS TO END
The system tests have been activated; normal vehicle operation is not allowed.
TILT MODULE FAILURE: BAD TILT SENSOR
There is a problem with the tilt sensor interface circuitry; the controller defaults to massively tilted and does
not try to prevent vehicle roll on the grade.
TRACTION MOTOR AT CURRENT LIMIT
Traction current has reached controller current limit or safe operating area limit.
WATER BATTERIES
The batteries have been charged a number of times (set by machine digit) and need a top-up; when this is
done the count will reset
2/1 Flash code 2/1 indicates problems with the footswitch.
FWS FAULTY
The two footswitch signals do not agree. EMS recycle required.
START UP

ured to prevent drive.
DRIVE PREVENTED - TILTED ABOVE ELEVATION
Drive is selected while drive cutout is active and drive cutout is configured to prevent drive.
3/1 Flash code 3/1 indicates that a contactor did not close when energized.
LINE & DIRECTION CONTACTORS MISWIRED
When the line contactor was closed traction point A went high (and the capacitor bank charge did not
increase to battery supply) - this occurs if the line contactor coil wiring is swapped with that for a direction
contactor coil.
OPEN-CIRCUIT FORWARD DIRECTION CONTACTOR OR TRACTION MOTOR
Traction point A did not go high when forward contactor was energized (this could be due to traction motor
open-circuit or a power wiring error).
OPEN-CIRCUIT LINE CONTACTOR
The capacitor bank charge did not increase to battery supply when line contactor was energized (this could
be due to a power wiring error).
OPEN-CIRCUIT REVERSE DIRECTION CONTACTOR OR TRACTION MOTOR
Traction point A did not go high when reverse contactor was energized (this could be due to traction motor
open-circuit or a power wiring error).
3/2 Flash code 3/2 indicates that a contactor did not open when energized.
WELDED LINE CONTACTOR
The capacitor bank charge did not decrease from battery supply when line contactor was deenergized (this
could be due to a power wiring error).
WARNING: If the line contactor is welded, the controller will not switch off when EMS or key switch is turned
off.
3/3 Flash code 3/3 indicates that a contactor coil is short-circuited.
OVERLOADED VALVE SUPPLY-CHECK WIRING.
There is a high current draw from the valve supply when no valve is energized; this is probably due to a wir-
ing error at the ground module.
SHORT-CIRCUIT FORWARD CONTACTOR COIL
The forward contactor was not energized when required, due to coil over current protection.
SHORT-CIRCUIT LINE CONTACTOR COIL
The line contactor was not energized when required, due to coil over current protection.
SHORT-CIRCUIT REVERSE CONTACTOR COIL
The reverse contactor was not energized when required, due to coil over current protection.

3/5 Flash code 3/5 indicates that there is a brake pressure problem.
BRAKES DID NOT LOCK
Brake pressure did not clear when the brake valve was deenergized.
BRAKES DID NOT RELEASE
No brake pressure was detected when running the pump motor and energizing the brake valve
4/2 Flash code 4/2 indicates that the controller is over temperature.
CONTROLLER TOO HOT - PLEASE WAIT
The controller heat sink temperature reached 75 degrees. The controller is shut down until it cools to below
70 degrees.
4/4 Flash code 4/4 indicates problems with the battery supply.
BATTERY LOW
Battery voltage is below 40V. This is a warning - the controller does not shut down.
BATTERY TOO HIGH - SYSTEM SHUT DOWN
Battery voltage is above 62V.
EMS recycle required.
BATTERY TOO LOW - SYSTEM SHUT DOWN
Battery voltage is below 33V.
EMS recycle required.
5/5 Flash code 5/5 indicates problems with vehicle speed or the encoder.
NO VEHICLE MOVEMENT DETECTED AT MAXIMUM POWER
No speed was measured with traction motor full on. This could be due to a traction motor fault, a power wir-
ing error, a speed encoder fault, the brakes not releasing (although brake Pressure is OK) or the vehicle
being overloaded so that the motor cannot turn the wheels.
DRIVE PREVENTED - BOTH SPEED ENCODERS FAULTY
Both speed encoder input voltages are out of range.
LEFT SPEED ENCODER FAULTY
The left speed encoder input voltages are out of range. The vehicle will continue to drive at cutback using
the right speed encoder.
TILT MODULE FAILURE; NOT COMMUNICATING
There is a problem with the positrac/tilt module; The controller defaults to massively tilted and does not try
to prevent vehicle roll on grade.
RIGHT SPEED ENCODER FAULTY
The right speed encoder input voltages are out of range. The vehicle will continue to drive at cutback using
the left speed encoder.
SPEED ENCODERS READING INVALID SPEED
One or both speed encoders is indicating an impossible number of pulses. This is probably due to a faulty
speed encoder.
VEHICLE RUNAWAY - CHECK SPEED ENCODERS
Speed in the wrong direction was measured with traction motor full on. This is probably due to the speed
encoder being fitted incorrectly; it could also be due to a speed encoder fault or faults as for “NO VEHICLE
MOVEMENT DETECTED” with the vehicle on a grade.

6/6 Flash code 6/6 indicates problems with the CANbus.


48V PROTECTION TRIPPED - CHECK INTER-MODULE WIRING
The power module is not receiving acknowledgments from the platform or ground modules to transmitted
data, and the protection circuit which supplies the platform and ground modules has tripped. This is proba-
bly due to wiring problems at the platform or ground module.
CANbus FAILURE: GROUND MODULE
The power module is receiving from the platform module but not the ground module. This should not be
possible!
CANbus FAILURE: PLATFORM MODULE
The power module is receiving from the ground module but not the platform module. This is probably due
to wiring problems between the platform and ground modules.
CANbus FAILURE: POWER MODULE The power module is not receiving acknowledgments from the plat-
form or ground modules to transmitted data. This is probably due to wiring problems between the ground
and power modules.
7/7 Flash code 7/7 indicates problems with a motor.
CAPACITOR BANK FAULT - CHECK POWER CIRCUITS
The capacitor bank is not charging. This is probably due to a power wiring error causing illegal current
drain; it could also be due to a very low battery supply.
OPEN-CIRCUIT PUMP MOTOR
Pump point A is collapsing when the pump MOSFETs are pulsed. This is probably due to an open circuit
pump motor or a power wiring error.
OPEN-CIRCUIT DIRECTIONAL CONTACTOR OR TRACTION MOTOR
Traction point A is collapsing when the traction MOSFETs are pulsed. This is probably due to an open cir-
cuit traction motor or a power wiring error. NOTE: This fault is unlikely to be seen due to interaction with
speed control...
PUMP POINT A LOW - CHECK POWER CIRCUITS
Pump point A is near 0V when the pump MOSFETs are off. This is probably due to a power
STALLED TRACTION MOTOR
The power module traction MOSFET protection circuit is active. This is due to massive current drain and
could be a stalled traction motor or a power wiring error.
STALLED PUMP MOTOR
The power module pump MOSFET protection circuit is active. This is due to massive current drain and
could be a stalled pump motor or a power wiring error.
TRACTION MOTOR OVERLOADED
The traction motor has been operating in current limit at a low percentage on for a period of time greater
than 10 seconds.
PUMP MOTOR OVERLOADED
The pump motor has been operating in current limit at a low percentage on for a period of time greater than
10 seconds.
TRACTION CURRENT AT ZERO - CHECK SHUNT WIRING
Traction current measurement is at zero. This is probably due to an open-circuit between the current mea-
surement shunt and the power module.
TRACTION POINT A HIGH - CHECK POWER CIRCUITS
Traction point A is near battery supply when neither direction contactor is energized and the traction MOS-
FETs are off. This could be due to a welded direction contactor or a power wiring error.
TRACTION POINT A LOW - CHECK POWER CIRCUITS
Traction point A is near 0V when neither direction contactor is energized and the traction MOSFETs are off.
This could be due to a power wiring error.

9/9 Flash code 9/9 indicates problems with the controller.


POWER MODULE FAILURE: CONTACTOR DRIVE CODE 1
A contactor remained energized when turned off.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 2
The hardware fail-safe tests did not complete because traction point A is not safe, or the hardware fail-safe
is permanently tripped.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 3
The hardware fail-safe tests did not complete because a contactor was energized when all should be turned
off
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 4
The hardware fail-safe tests did not complete because the hardware fail-safe tripped immediately when the
traction MOSFETs were turned on.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 10
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the hardware fail-safe did not trip within the allowed test time.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 11
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the hardware fail-safe tripped too slowly.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 12
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the hardware fail-safe tripped too quickly.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 13
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the hardware fail-safe remained tripped when the traction MOS-
FETs were turned off.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 14
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the line contactor could still be energized when the hardware
fail-safe was tripped
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 15
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the contactor drive fail-safe did not trip within the allowed test
time.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 16
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the contactor drive fail-safe tripped too slowly.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS CODE 17
The hardware fail-safe tests failed because the contactor drive fail-safe tripped too quickly.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: HWFS TEST STALLED
The hardware fail-safe tests did not complete, but no reason can be determined.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: BAD TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The temperature sensor measurement is invalid, this is probably due to a disconnected wire within the
power module. The possibility of other disconnected wires (which could cause dangerous system function)
means that the controller is shut down.
POWER MODULE FAILURE: S/C LINE CONTACTOR DRIVER The line contactor energized when the foot-
switch was closed, before it was turned on, this is probably due to a failed driver within the power module,
although it could be due to bad power module wirings

Check line contactor.
Check all power wiring.
BATTERY TOO LOW
The system test cannot run with battery voltage below minimum.
BATTERY TOO HIGH
The system test cannot run with battery voltage above maximum.
CHECK CAN WIRING
The system test cannot run in platform mode unless data is being received from the
platform, ground and positrac/tilt modules. The system test cannot run in ground mode
unless data is being received from the ground and positrac/tilt modules.
CHECK LEFT SPD.
There is an open- or short- circuit in the left speed encoder wiring. Check left speed
encoder.
CHECK RIGHT SPD.
There is an open- or short- circuit in the right speed encoder wiring. Check right speed
encoder.
CHECK SHUNT
The traction current measurement is open-circuit.
Check wiring between power module contactor panel.
BAD PUMP WIRING
Pump point A is not high, probably caused by an open-circuit pump motor or wiring.
Check all power wiring. Check pump motor.
BAD POWER WIRING
Traction point A is high, probably caused by incorrect faction motor wiring. Check all
power wiring. Check traction motor.
BAD POWER MODULE
An internal problem was detected in the power module.
HIGH TILT ANGLE
The vehicle is very tilted, or the tilt sensor has been damaged. Check tilt sensor.
HOT POWER MODULE
The heat sink temperature exceeds 75°C; this is only a warning.
BAD I/O PORTS
The controller detected a problem with its internal circuits at switch on. If other problems
are also detected, the controller may need replacing.
SUSPECT EEPROM
The controller detected a problem with its EEPROM stored personality settings at
switch on. Check and, if necessary correct, all personality settings.
WAIT:CAPBANK HI

operator’s manual for more information.

Grounding
"Grounding the meter" means to take the black lead
(which is connected to the COM (common) or negative
port) and touch it to a good path to the negative side of
the Voltage source.

Backprobing
To "backprobe" means to take the measurement by
accessing a connector’s contact on the same side as the
wires, the back of the connector. Readings can be done
while maintaining circuit continuity this way. If the connec-
tor is the sealed type, great care must be taken to avoid
damaging the seal around the wire. It is best to use
probes or probe tips specifically designed for this tech-
nique, especially on sealed connectors. Whenever possi-
ble insert probes into the side of the connector such that
the test also checks both terminals of the connection. It is
possible to inspect a connection within a closed connec-
tor by backprobing both sides of a connector terminal and
measuring resistance. Do this after giving each wire a
gentle pull to ensure the wires are still attached to the con- Figure 7-1. Voltage Measurement (DC)
tact and contacts are seated in the connector.
• If meter is not auto ranging, set it to the correct
Min/Max range (See multimeter’s operation manual)

Use of the "Min/Max" recording feature of some meters • Use firm contact with meter leads
can help when taking measurements of intermittent condi-
tions while alone. For example, you can read the Voltage
applied to a solenoid when it is only operational while a
switch, far from the solenoid and meter, is held down.

Polarity
Getting a negative Voltage or current reading when
expecting a positive reading frequently means the leads
are reversed. Check what reading is expected, the loca-
tion of the signal and that the leads are connected to the

Current Measurement the inside of the connector prior to assembly. This is


most easily achieved by using a syringe.

NOTE: Over a period of time, oxidation increases electrical


resistance at the connection, eventually causing cir-
cuit failure.

2. To prevent shorting, silicone grease must be packed


around each wire where they enter the outside of the
connector housing. Also, silicone grease must be
applied at the joint where the male and female con-
nectors come together. Any other joints (around
strain reliefs, etc.) where water could enter the con-
nector should also be sealed.

NOTE: This condition is especially common when machines


are pressure washed since the washing solution is
much more conductive than water.

3. Anderson connectors for the battery boxes and bat-


tery chargers should have silicone grease applied to
the contacts only.

NOTE: Curing-type sealants might also be used to prevent


shorting and would be less messy, but would make
future pin removal more difficult.

• Set up the meter for the expected current range


• Be sure to connect the meter leads to the correct
jacks for the current range you have selected
• If meter is not auto ranging, set it to the correct
range (See multi meter’s operation manual)
• Use firm contact with meter leads

7.3 APPLYING SILICONE DIELECTRIC


COMPOUND TO ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS
Silicone Dielectric Compound must be used on all electri-
cal connections for the following reasons:

• To prevent oxidation at the mechanical joint between


male and female pins.
• To prevent electrical malfunction caused by low level
conductivity between pins when wet.
Use the following procedure to apply Silicone Dielectric
Compound to the electrical connectors. This procedure
applies to all plug connections not enclosed in a box. Sili-
cone grease should not be applied to connectors with
external seals.
1. To prevent oxidation, silicone grease must be
packed completely around male and female pins on

AMP Connectors
Silicone Dielectric Compound must be used on the AMP
connections for the following reasons:

• To prevent oxidation at the mechanical joint between


male and female pins.
• To prevent electrical malfunction caused by low level
conductivity between pins when wet.
Use the following procedure to apply Silicone Dielectric
Compound to the electrical connectors.
1. To prevent oxidation and low level conductivity, sili-
cone dielectric grease must be packed completely
around male and female pins on the inside of the
connector after the mating of the housing to the
header. This is easily achieved by using a syringe to
fill the header with silicone dielectric compound, to a
point just above the top of the male pins inside the
header. When assembling the housing to the
header, it is possible that the housing will become
